Itinerary
Day 1 Marrakesh - Oued Dades - 0
Fly to Marrakesh. A transfer will pick you up at the airport and bring you to a luxurious hotel in Dades.
Day 2 Zagora - 175
Breakfast at 8.00. Outside we can feel the fresh breeze coming down from the Atlas Mountains. The first 30 kms of a shorter day will be nice and easy a good section to warm up and come back again to the bike feelings. We are heading south to Zagora. It`s not a long morning, 88 kms to be precise. The mid morning will be demanding crossing a quite winding section trought the mountain with pretty tight turns some of them dangerous. Lunch will be served at typical hotel hidden on a narrow street of N`Kob. refueling in N`Kob and off we go keeping south on the azimute. Mandatory stop after 6 kms to look back and admire the view! Time for family picture! The section ahead of us it`s quite rocky and sleepery. Caution! Further south leaving the rocky section the ride becomes an easy journey crossing some winding sections alternating with open tracks, riverbed crossings and lost villages with surprising green crops. A total of 87 kms this afternoon to Zagora where we`ll stay the night. Definitively one of the most iconic cities in Morocco when it comes to talk about Rally Dakar and other big rallies. Worth a visit to the market and to the workshops full of stickers from around the world.
Day 3 Zagora - Mhamid - 210
Today is the first day of sand dunes. Erg Chegaga is waiting for us just after lunch. We have prepared a 19 kms loop to play around in the dunes. It`s not mandatory to ride all the dunes because we are coming back to the starting point. But before the dunes we have a morning ride of 132 kms with the typical desert lanes reminding us of the Dakar Rally. Lunch will be served on the bounderies of Erg Chegaga where we`ll start and finish the loop around the dunes. After the dunes of Erg Chegaga it`s just 57 kms to M`Hamid going East with a particular and funny section with several lanes side by side bypassing right or left small dunes with vegetation. The hotel stays close to the border with Algeria.
Day 4 Mhamid - Camp El Mharech - 210
Breakfast, have a strong one!! You will need it!! A long morning with 146 kms. Some of the most iconic tracks of the real Rally Dakar will be waiting for us. A stop for gas in the morning at Tagounite. Refill it to the top and it`s time to take it easy to keep away the hidden threats that steps on our away coming from anywhere. A good excuse to save fuel because we have a liaison of 119 kms till the next refueling. Crossing Tamegroute a grid of small cultivated fields with millions of palm trees drive safely to avoid any crashes head to head with other car or bike. After Tamegroute we are heading N/NE along wide desert planes. A small detour from the natural track will lead us to lunch and refueling. A short afternoon with 62 kms takes us along the route used by the stages of Rally Dakar.
Day 5 Camp El Mharech - Erfoud - 185
The morning begins with wide open tracks driving us to a dry river where we have to cross from one riverbed to another finding the best way to pass through struggling against some fesh-fesh sections. An adventure just like the ones we see on TV! Remlia is a welcoming small village and another mandatory stop on our way. Rest under the shade, have a coke and watch the old way refuel from the water cans with funnels. Leaving Remlia behind we`ll cross huge dry lake with flat and hard pack ground where we can ride side by side and take some fantastic pictures and videos towards the absolutely fantastic dunes of Ouzina. Not gigantic but big enough to play and have the fun of a live time going up, coming down, switching from one side to the other of the dune crest...can´t put it in words!!! It´s 11 kms to cross the Erg Ouzina. Again not mandatory, there is an alternative route. Heading to Merzouga the Monza Circuit is on our way. Yes! Monza dirt track version!!! Before lunch the famous and enormous Erg Chebbi presents us the highest dune in Morocco and yes we are going up there! Great sensations on the top! The view, the quiet, the endless dunes! No words again to describe! Arriving lunch if it´s hot a swimming pool is available. Nice spot at the bottom of the Big Dune. After lunch refueling at the gas station that looks more like a meeting point of bikes, 4x4, quads and SSV`s. Heading to Erfoud there are more dunes to cross. Follow the leader and don`t leave the line for safety reasons this is mandatory. Leaving the dunes we all stop to admire this astonishing Erg Chebbi. A mixed feeling takes hold of you it`s good to get the finish line but at the same time you`re already missing it. Wide plateaus and fast tracks will take you back to our amazing Kasbah Hotel.
Day 6 Erfoud - Oued Dades - 265
Breakfast, briefing and...let the game begin!! A soft morning with 114 kms crossing some of the tracks used by several factory teams to prepare their structures to race the big events like Dakar. Some of these tracks are actually used by some of the most important races taking place in Morocco. On the first half of the morning it`s time to take some pictures close to the monuments: The City of Orion, Stairway to Heaven and The Golden Spiral. Leaving the monuments bypassing some small dunes that in fact are wells you will have to use the sat nav to find your azimute. Wide open planes with several tricking dried ditches will stand on your way! Take care it`s just the first day. A dried river crossing where you have to find the best way to the other bank due to the amount of big and small rocks it`s the last section before a huge lunar landscape that will lead you to lunch stop and refueling. In the afternoon a memorable section going down in a river bed with rocky sections, sandy sections, "hors piste"...find your way...10 kms of unforgettable fun followed by some quite relaxing 20 kms crossing some typical villages of Morocco! Always be really careful crossing these villages, hundreds of children will cross on your way! Quick stop for chocolate and refueling and heading to Dades. The mid afternoon will be tough and absolutely astonishing crossing the Jebel Sahro considered one of the most beautiful range mountains in Morocco ...you will never forget this range mountain! Arriving the superb Hotel with a smile on your face it´s time for beers and Jacuzzi. Massages may be booked on your arrival. More than 1000 kms, 5 days riding, different kind of tracks, the 3 major Ergs of Morocco you´ve done it! Mission Accomplished! Congrats!
